Holy Spirit School Age Program

Holy Spirit was sharing the love this Valentine’s Day! We gave valentines to the local library, to all our teachers, and of course to each other! We were super busy! #kindness #community #valentinesday #friendship

Happy Halloween! Lots of ooey gooey things to experiment with and to fulfill our creative minds. Making potions, slime, and carving pumpkins! These were great opportunities to test theories and solve problems. #problemsolving #spookyfun #communication #potions

The school age children showed lots of school spirit this morning as they worked to make a sign to cheer on their peers at the cross country meet tomorrow! #community #kindness #schoolspirit

Thanksgiving! Holy Spirit is showing their thanks and kindness this season! Dropping off gifts to the retirement home next door, making cards and gifts for others, and creating an amazing thanksgiving tablecloth! #kindness #hdlh #community #thanksgiving #caring #Thankful

We are busy working on turkey centerpieces for our neighbours at Wildpine Residence. #community #connection #kindness

The school age children have been learning about how our brains work in relation to self-regulation, the many ways we can describe our feelings and what we can do to help regulate ourselves in times of upset. #consciousdiscipline

Our friends in Group B at Holy Spirit SAP are getting back into their groove! Playing with friends, creating art, and reconnecting with our school spirit. Starting off our new school year with bright smiles and fun activities! #newschoolyear #creativity #holyspirit #connection

Hard to believe that it is already August! We have been having so much fun at HSSAP!

Happy Father’s Day to all the great Dads we know!

How fun! Two of our school age boys recreated the game Not Parent Approved. A game similarly played like Cards Against Humanity, but for children. They spent 2 mornings creating the cards and then played it today. #expression #hardwork #manylaughs

Can you spot all the kids? We played a fun challenge activity to see which group of children could place the most amount of papers on the rest of their group. They all had a blast! #cooperation #friends #problemsolving

One of our school age groups collected 43 acts of kindness on their kindness tree in one day! To celebrate that amazing achievement, they put together a party in both the morning and afternoon, complete with food, music, balloons, activities and dancing! #belonging #kindness

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the wonderful Moms that we are so lucky to know. Have a wonderful day.

Our "Pizza Night" community helper event in support of the World Wildlife Fund was a huge success! The older SA children put so much work into the event by creating a promo video and posters and presenting the idea to younger children, as well as running the event itself.

So much fun to be had on our Friday PD Day! #getoutside #play #creativity #fun

We definitely have some artistic children in in our care! 😊 #expression #creativity #showingprideinthemselves

March was a whirlwind... here is a little glimpse of some of the things we got up to. We are excited to see what April holds for us. #engagement #belonging #expression

Making some beautiful creations this morning! #expression #ladybug

It was a day of mixed emotions as we said goodbye to Ms. Grace. Grace will be missed dearly at our program. We wish you well in your retirement, Grace!

More community helpers in the school age group. Check out these awesome felt marble mazes created as an addition to our safe place tools. Using the sewing machine was a learning experience for all the children and now they want to make even more! #community #newskill #belonging
